Their first album, Hampton's Lullaby, was released on Autumn Tone Records on July 27, 2010.

Six years ain’t a hell of a lot of time, but Futurebirds have filled ‘em with a whole lot of living. Laying down their shoe-gazing country, harmonious psychedelia, and barnstorming, ragged rock both on record and in person, the Athens-based band presents a delicate balance on Hotel Parties, its third full-length record that explores the toils, joys, and struggles exposed by six years doing any one thing so intensely.

Arriving a full two years after the band’s 2013 breakthrough, Baba Yaga, Hotel Parties presents a series of dualities. Loving something and letting it go. Pining for success and trying to staying true to yourself. The beckoning call of road and the comforts of home. As a result, says singer-guitarist Carter King, the LP represents Futurebirds’ “most concise effort to date all around, like some sort of accidental concept record.”

Over the course of these three LPs, two EPs, and one live record, people have come and gone, yet Futurebirds seem to stay. Some things came out as they liked and some pills have been bitter. But sometimes, six years just ain’t enough time to tell.

Baby come on, we've been through this beforeYou diggin up bones we're running cirlcesI'm not ashamed to say you got me wound upLassoed my heart and gave me rope burn

Cause we've turned our love into a rodeoBut i'll be damned if I ain't gonna grab the bull by the hornsYou may put me in a earlyI don't have another way

God damn, I miss my friendsChasing empty dreams and left me helplessNo one loves me like you anymoreAs long forgotten as a dead-eyed bull

Cause we've turned our love into a rodeoBut i'll be damned if I ain't gonna grab the bull by the hornsSo let me down baby to an early grayWould have been no other wayCus I would have been no other wayI would have been no other wayCus I would have been no other way

Southern Raised are a talented group of 3 sisters and 1 brother who learned to play musical instruments associated with classical music. However, these siblings’ talents couldn’t be contained to just one instrument or one genre, for there seemed to be no bounds to their talents. After hearing a recording of acoustic instruments and thinking it would be fun to learn how and play those instruments, it actually served as the catalyst to these young Christians’ lives taking the road less traveled and becoming Southern Gospel Musicians and Performers, as they began telling the Gospel message through uplifting, soul-searching songs and music.
